Jaime Alguersuari, SEAT ambassador
Starting today, Formula 1 driver Jaime Alguersuari will be a
SEAT ambassador thanks to the agreement reached with the Spanish brand to
provide him with a very special model, the Leon CUPRA R, which he will be
using to get around when not driving a competition car.
At a special event held at the SEAT Martorell facility, Jaime Alguersuari
was given the keys to his new Leon CUPRA R - the recently launched and
most powerful car the brand ever produced - by Chairman of SEAT's
Board of Directors Dr. Francisco Javier Garcia Sanz and SEAT Chairman
James Muir.
This agreement stems from the company's intentions to support the
successes achieved by sportspeople such as Alguersuari in motorsport, as
well as in many other specialities, as was highlighted by Dr. Francisco
Javier Garcia Sanz, "SEAT is a young sport-oriented brand, and its
car designs mirror that spirit. That is why we are delighted that Jaime,
personifying the talent of the new generation of Spanish sportspeople,
and the youngest ever driver to debut in Formula 1, should be able to
enjoy driving his new Leon CUPRA R, SEAT's most powerful car ever,
launched just a few weeks ago."
For his part, Jaime Alguersuari added "I always had an idea that
being a Formula 1 driver meant new challenges and a few perks. SEAT has
asked me to be an ambassador for the brand, and starting today this
brand-new eye-catching Leon CUPRA R is going to be my personal car.
It's a real honour and privilege."
